Oral Care Myths Debunked: What Your Dentist Wishes You Knew

Separating fact from fiction in oral care can save your teeth, gums, and wallet. Let's debunk the most common myths that could be harming your dental health.

Myth 1: "Harder Brushing = Cleaner Teeth"

Truth: Aggressive brushing damages enamel and gums. Sonic technology like the LUNA's 39,000 gentle vibrations per minute provides superior cleaning without the damage.

Myth 2: "You Only Need to Replace Your Toothbrush When It Looks Worn"

Truth: Bacteria buildup occurs long before visible wear. Replace brush heads every 3 months for optimal hygiene, regardless of appearance.

Myth 3: "Electric Toothbrushes Are Just Marketing Hype"

Truth: Clinical studies show electric toothbrushes remove 7x more plaque than manual brushing and significantly improve gum health. What more sonic technology?

Myth 4: "Expensive Toothbrushes Aren't Worth It"

Truth: Quality matters. A premium sonic toothbrush like LUNA costs less than two dental cleanings but provides daily professional-grade care.

Myth 5: "If My Gums Bleed, I Should Brush Less"

Truth: Bleeding gums indicate inflammation. Gentle, consistent brushing with proper technique actually reduces bleeding over time.

Myth 6: "Whitening Toothpaste Damages Teeth"

Truth: ADA-approved whitening toothpastes are safe when used with gentle brushing techniques. Sonic toothbrushes enhance whitening effectiveness.

Don't let myths compromise your oral health. Invest in proven technology and proper technique for the smile you deserve.
